So my neighbor called me. He said he had some Texaco cans he was throwing away. So I walked across the street in the blinding snow. You never know whats next door. I bought all of it.

@texacokie... yes I run picker radio spots on a country station that covers 22 counties here in Pa.
@ hi-octane, its the opposite here in w.pa. Tons of people love old stuff. Most are retire coal miners, farmers, oil and gas workers. Lots of tractor and car guys.

I too run a radio add up in Northern New Mexico, And come across some very good leads. But lately stuff is not turning up like it use too. people just are not calling ,I don't know if it's just because it's winter time or it's just not there any more or people are hanging on to what they have.

I could be the winter. Its always better in the spring time.
Here is my commercial. I know... some may find it funny or hokie, but I had to find a way for people to understand what it is I do. They understand the picker tv show, so I used it.
